These are additional flags to be passed when linking proc macros for the
Rust toolchain. If unset, it defaults to $(HOSTLDFLAGS).

This is needed because the list of flags to link hostprogs is not
necessarily the same as the list of flags used to link libmacros.so.
When we build proc macros, we need the latter, not the
former. To distinguish between the two, introduce this new variable
to stand out from HOSTLDFLAGS used to link other host progs.
